Did Peyo smurf it all by himself OR did he hire artists like Schulz?? What I mean is except for the show, did he draw all the pics from the books?
I know Bill Watterson drew everything from Calvin and Hobbes. What about Peyo?

From Wikipedia:
quote:
As the Smurfs became increasingly popular, Peyo started a studio in the early sixties, where a number of talented comic artists started to work. Peyo himself supervised the work and worked primarily on Johan et Pirlouit, leaving the Smurfs to the Studio. The most notable artists to come out of this Studio are Walthéry, Wasterlain, Gos, Derib, Degieter, and Desorgher.

Well, one man couldn't do it all--perhaps he did some of the first smurf comic books alone, but most comics series have a studio--and especially for a cartoon series.
Just think of them as smurfs working under the guidance of Papa Peyo Smurf. ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)
